I'm having trouble locating the heating element for this burner. It looks like measuring from the edge, not including the trim, it's about 7.5 inches.... The elements I see available for a similar model number(8791) look like they are 8 inches... is this possible, or did I just measure wrong and this is actually 8 inches including the trim?

I want to make sure I get the right thing since I will probably not be able to return it.

Big burner 8 inches, small burner 6 inches. What you want to do is match the number of turns the burner has. It is either gonna be a 4 turn 8 inch or a 5 turn 8 inch burner.Or a 3 turn 6 inch 4 turn 6 incher or even a 5 turn 6 inch burner. The delta burner is better than the y burner also.

This is a solid burner element, it's not a coil

I'm pretty positive about the model number, but I will recheck, it's my neighbors stove about 5 doors down.
